Go look at the picture from when he committed. Probably the most impressive physical transformation of anyone on the roster.

The kids frame is every bit as wide as Morez and Morez looked like a grown man at times as a freshman.

It's incredible and a testament to our S&C program. I still remember when we spent 3 years trying to get Tisdale to put on 10 pounds back in the day.

He was always a high TO player, no one's claiming it was always gonna be 1-2 a game .... it's just it got drastically worse after the injury.

The shooting also took a pretty hefty hit (free throws included).

Maybe? Or perhaps...coaches had him scouted better and caused KJ issues knowing how to defend him.

Coaches are allowed to make adjustments on defense? Did anyone tell Zach Hamer?

I'm no NBA expert but it seems to me that if TSJ isn't getting tic then KJ and WR will have difficulty, too.
I know getting picked in the first round means a bigger payday that whatever they would get in NIL, but
wouldn't their games atrophy, not playing all that much?

So I wouldn't be too surprised if WR came back, and maybe even KJ.
Time will tell
(Cue Savoy Brown anyone?)

One Man Fast Break
This needs to put Underwood on the hot seat. Losing MJJ to another school is completely unacceptable. One missed tournament and heā€™s out of here.

I guess it's Brad & Tyler's fault for all the illness that buried our team throughout the season along with the injuries. The fact that Brad & Tyler missed all those wide open 3s, free throws, & layups hurt us too. I went crazy when Brad & Tyler made all those crappy passes for turnovers. I guess the only thing to do is fire the whole coaching staff & get a coach who never gets sick, makes all the shots, & doesnt turn the ball over.

I hope JJ lights it up next year! We need a grassroots Illinois kid to do well now that Morez is (likely) gone.
